My favorite tenet of Hygge is “We time, not me time.” Yes, laying in a hammock or curling up in a reading corner (two of my favorite solo past times) ARE cozy, but the truest forms of hygge are shared with people you love. That’s why when intentional togetherness becomes part of your personal values or family culture, hygge (and probably a little bickering 😏) isn’t far behind.
Let your goal be to create cozy, welcoming spaces, then intentionally carve out time to fill them with the laughter, vulnerability and warmth of shared meals, conversation and real relationship. Focus on the “we.”
